I was going to do a piece on Obama's presser today, and I still will, but first, I would like to ask all of you for a virtual moment of silence for the passing of Elizabeth Edwards. My heart broke for her children. The world and this country has lost a woman of unparalleled poise, spirit, grace and dignity. In a statement, her family said the following:

"Today we have lost the comfort of Elizabeth's presence but she remains the heart of this family," the statement said. "We love her and will never know anyone more inspiring or full of life."

She may be gone, and we miss her dearly, but her legacy will live on. There's a guestbook online by Legacy.com to send her family your condolences, if you choose.
